Can't take a break more than intraday haha :) I have been daytrading a little altcoins today, that's my break. Also been working on the Hive account@dolphincontest, and just made a 50% partnership with Hive account@cryptli on Hive account@steemrat bot so got no time for holidays :)

I read your post about the futures, it will be interesting to see how they play out.
I think the CME futures do move btc price, indirectly, and read an article about this just a couple hours ago:
